SilverFallsAndrew Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Well none of the runs tonight sucked. At first I thought the EURO was going to blow for points south of PDX, but it ended up delivering the goods. Even EUG ends up with 6-10" by the end of this run. I would gladly pick up what the EURO is putting down. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. I'm still intrigued by the GEM/UKMET/ICON suite. 1 Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

I don't think too far north is much of a threat given the GEM and GFS.

Gradient Keeper Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 I love what we are seeing, but I am very cautious and rather nervous with the potential for the arctic trough to cut off to our north and then the warm front position becomes a concern. Even though the 00z EURO Op was the only model or ensembles thus far showing that. We just need a few more runs to iron out a few details in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverFallsAndrew Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Certainly not a slam dunk here about 40 miles south of PDX, probably about a 50/50 chance we get cold/snowy.

Gradient Keeper Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 The 500mb pattern on the 00z ECMWF with ridge/NAO block merger sets up on the 00z in 3.5 days, but given initialization was at 4 PM, and adjusting time ahead the pattern actually sets up in just 3 days. Arctic air moves into the Columbia Basin in 4 days. Faster with the GEM and UKMET at Day 3 and ICON just before Day 3. We're really, REALLY close to seeing this actually happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
